mm: batch activate_page() to reduce lock contention

Browse Source 
The zone->lru_lock is heavily contented in workload where activate_page()
is frequently used.  We could do batch activate_page() to reduce the lock
contention.  The batched pages will be added into zone list when the pool
is full or page reclaim is trying to drain them.

For example, in a 4 socket 64 CPU system, create a sparse file and 64
processes, processes shared map to the file.  Each process read access the
whole file and then exit.  The process exit will do unmap_vmas() and cause
a lot of activate_page() call.  In such workload, we saw about 58% total
time reduction with below patch.  Other workloads with a lot of
activate_page also benefits a lot too.

I tested some microbenchmarks:
case-anon-cow-rand-mt		0.58%
case-anon-cow-rand		-3.30%
case-anon-cow-seq-mt		-0.51%
case-anon-cow-seq		-5.68%
case-anon-r-rand-mt		0.23%
case-anon-r-rand		0.81%
case-anon-r-seq-mt		-0.71%
case-anon-r-seq			-1.99%
case-anon-rx-rand-mt		2.11%
case-anon-rx-seq-mt		3.46%
case-anon-w-rand-mt		-0.03%
case-anon-w-rand		-0.50%
case-anon-w-seq-mt		-1.08%
case-anon-w-seq			-0.12%
case-anon-wx-rand-mt		-5.02%
case-anon-wx-seq-mt		-1.43%
case-fork			1.65%
case-fork-sleep			-0.07%
case-fork-withmem		1.39%
case-hugetlb			-0.59%
case-lru-file-mmap-read-mt	-0.54%
case-lru-file-mmap-read		0.61%
case-lru-file-mmap-read-rand	-2.24%
case-lru-file-readonce		-0.64%
case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
case-lru-memcg			-1.35%
case-mmap-pread-rand-mt		1.88%
case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
case-mmap-pread-seq-mt		0.89%
case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%
case-mmap-xread-rand-mt		0.71%
case-mmap-xread-seq-mt		0.38%

The most significent are:
case-lru-file-readtwice		-11.69%
case-mmap-pread-rand		-15.26%
case-mmap-pread-seq		-69.72%

which use activate_page a lot.  others are basically variations because
each run has slightly difference.
